One of the reasons cited against butt mounting lights is that bands and 
D-rings must be installed on the tanks which produces a metal-to-metal 
connection.  This is apparently a "no-no".

What am I missing?  Could someone explain why metal to metal
connections are  bad?

Kent,

When you have two different metals in contact, and wet, you get an
electrolytic reaction that causes a significant increase in the rate of
corrosion.
